This act perfectly illustrates how personality and presentation make all the difference in how enjoyable an act is. There are few gymnastic feats performed here, but every second of the act is riveting because of the talent of the performers. Bravo!

Well I am in Show Low AZ up in the mountains. I am now 83 and well retired. My gorgeous husband passed away a short time ago but I live with my daughter Wendy and grand son Michael.The video that you see was a six minute clip of our act at the MGM in Reno. I am so glad that so many people are still enjoying our performance. Fe Jover.

@@wendyhartmann3943 Yesterday at the British Music Hall Society's Day By The Sea at The Royal Hippodrome, Eastbourne in Sussex, England, there was a section where clips of specialist Variety acts was shown. This was top of the bill and a packed house was rocking with laughter. Wonderful stuff.

At the MGM in Vegas was one of the biggest and most technically amazing scenes I have ever seen on a stage. The scene ended with the iceberg coming through the back wall and thousands of tons of water gushing everywhere followed by the Titanic sinking on stage. It was sensational and they followed that with The Jovers walking frontcloth and they tore the place apart every night. I never worked with them but I wish I had.
@JimMoore6 жыл бұрын
I saw that show with the Titanic and all the water flowing. That was followed by George Carl who made everyone in the place cry with laughter. These kinds of acts are so wonderful and few are performing any longer.

It would be great-hoping someone inherited Miss Jov's laughter cuz it's one in a million & so contagious! Any more gems with them? Sure hope so. *just me*

I'm amazed to see that they were still performing their incredible act ( however toned down physically) in the 1980s from what I'm used to seeing from when they were frequently on the Ed Sullivan show during the late 1960s - early 1970s. . They were so delightful. An amazing act.

Started off a little slow but got me laughing out loud later on. This was one seriously stout guy to pull off the strength moves he does, she's not your typical twig-thin acrobat by any means. Also, doing those awkward moves is probably tougher than a properly performed acrobatic move as well. Her laugh even grew on me after a couple minutes. Great act.

Now folks, this is class AAA entertainment, and I don't care who you are. Bring back people like this who had talent, and get the vulgar, political, so-called comedians off the air. What strength these people had. They could have done standup with out the acrobatics I'll bet, but the acrobatics just put icing on the cake. They remind me a lot of Burns and Allen. Such great talent. Best wishes Ms. Jover. RIP Mr. Jover.
